Biblical Preaching: The Development and Delivery of Expository Messages

17 reviews
Haddon W. Robinson

Baker Academic, 2001

Basics of preaching
I thought I knew about preaching the Bible before I read this book but relised how ignorant I had been. It helped me to get down to some basic but vital principles of studying and preparation.

Perfect, just what I ordered!
We'd been looking for this book for a few weeks. Good price and reliability high.

Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10

Marcus Luttrell

Back Bay Books, 2008

Very good book, don't listen to the hate
Reading the negative reviews and then reading the book I have to wonder if these negative reviewers and I read the same book. I think the guy is allowed his opinions after what he went through. Not to mention his opinions are just common sense. Also I love the reviews that say no spec ops soldier would ever kill an innocent civilian. I remember that during the first Gulf war a Green Beret team ...

World Atlas of Wine

17 reviews
Hugh Johnson, Jancis Robinson

Hamlyn, 2008

almost an encyclopedia
This is my third copy of World Atlas. Each one has been such a substantial improvement over the previous one that its purchase was inevitable. Great maps, witty, relevant text and the usual breath-taking photographs of wine country. (did you ever notice that no body grows wine in ugly places?)

Housekeeping: A Novel

Marilynne Robinson

Picador, 2004

This Book Will Change You
This book is so beautiful and wise that if you give it a chance, and yes it is a difficult read, it will change you. The ending is so transcendent I have never been able to get through it without tears. Is it comforting? No. It makes us look at some uncomfortable truths. As Ruthie becomes more and more odd, more and more like Sylvie, she also becomes wiser, almost a mystic about time and place. ...

I bought it for the food
I ordered this book to look at the diet recommended. The recipes were easy and tasty. I could recommend blending these foods into your diet to control calories and help cut fat. They were tasty and filling and there is appropriate information about portion size. Often diet recipies are awful. I also bought the cookbook is the series that has a broader range of food choices. Well worth the ...

Home: A Novel
Marilynne Robinson

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2008

Hundreds of thousands were enthralled by the luminous voice of John Ames in Gilead , Marilynne Robinson’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel. Home is an entirely independent, deeply affecting novel that takes place concurrently in the same locale, this time in the household of Reverend Robert Boughton, Ames’s closest friend. Glory Boughton, aged thirty-eight, has returned to Gilead to care for her dying father. Soon her ...

Out of Our Minds: Learning to be Creative

Ken Robinson

Capstone, 2001

Absolutely amazing! Right on target.
I was put on to Ken Robison's work after listening to his TED talk about the same subject. This is probably one of the most influential and thought-changing books I've ever read. It is very well written, is well thought-out, and highly relevant. It is long, but it is thorough, and I appreciated that. I was never bored reading it. I've bought a copy for my Sister, am lending mine to an artist ...

Lifesaving Stuff!
Great recipes, great information. Two RN's and my cardiologist all give this book a really big thumbs up! Plus, and this is a seriously big plus, you never feel like you're dieting.

Clever Marketing Ruse? No Way! Robinson is a Genius
Just over a year ago, I was walking through Borders when I noticed this book and laughed to myself at its prominently displayed and clichéd promise of MAXIMUM GRADES. "Oh great, I've seen this before," I thought. "Only suckers and suckers' parents buy these books, anyway." I walked away. After all, who doesn't want maximum grades? Or, for that matter, a shorter waistband, to become a ...

It's all there
I would recommend this for anyone interested in wine from the novice to Robert Parker (I'm betting he has a copy). Four friends have purchased this book after looking at mine.

Confronting Power and Sex in the Catholic Church

10 reviews
Bishop Geoffrey Robinson

Liturgical Press, 2008

An outstanding call for true Catholic Church reform, a tour de force
This is a really excellent book, coming directly to grips not only with the Roman Catholic Church's clerical abuse problems, but with history's iron grip on both governance and doctrine and the Church's inability to get beyond that grip -- due to structure, resistance to paradigm shifts, and a failure of will. Clerical sexual abuse is shown as a prime example of the Church's dysfunctional ...

Too Cool To Be Forgotten

4 reviews
Alex Robinson

Top Shelf Productions, 2008

Robinson's best to date, but baffling title and presentation
"Too Cool to be Forgotten" is probably Alex Robinson's finest work to date, though at a scant 128 pages it's far too short. Maybe I'm just a spoiled reader after the chunky "Box Office Poison" and the similarly thick "Tricked," but there's easily enough conceptual meat here (guy goes in for hypnosis, wakes up back in high school) to match the scope of those books. While the book flies by, ...

Too Nice for Your Own Good : How to Stop Making 9 Self-Sabotaging Mistakes

Duke Robinson

Grand Central Publishing, 2000

What an amazing book
I had to find a way to say "no" to someone, and a friend lent me her copy. I am forever indebted to her because it happened after I finished reading this marvelous book. The information in it has enabled me to stop talking in counterproductive ways and doing several things I always did because I wanted to be nice...and to be seen as nice. It was so engrossing I purchased 10 copies for myself, ...
